The Achievement for All (AfA) project aimed to improve the outcomes of all children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

The two year project took place in over 400 schools, starting in September 2009.

It was a project designed to enable schools and local authorities to reflect on existing strategies that are effective for children and young people with SEND and provide the capacity to strengthen provision in areas which will impact on this group of learners.

Strand one: The use of Assessing Pupil Progress (APP) to track pupils’ progress, the setting of curriculum targets and implementation of appropriate interventions.

Strand two: The use of a clear framework for developing an open, ongoing dialogue with parents about their child’s learning.

Strand three: Development of key actions to support children and young people with SEND to make progress in one or two of the following areas; attendance, behaviour, bullying, developing positive relationships and increasing participation.

AfA pupils in Y5 and Y10 made significantly better progress in English and Maths than pupils with and without SEN nationally in the first year (University of Manchester 2011)

90% of AfA schools achieved average gains of 2 sub levels, primary ( reading, writing and maths) secondary ( English and Maths) in the first 2 terms.

The averages mask some exceptional progress. In one LA over 45% of Y10s, made at least 3 sub level gains in English and 36% in Maths in 4 terms. 18% made at least 6 sub level gains in English and 15 % in Maths in the same period.
